Hadley expressed surprise at the of the railroad men in Chicago in agreeing to restore the old tes, especially as they had consented @ cenference with the Governor and Attorney-General. Will Ask Invéstigntion, At a meeting of railroad men in St. Louis last week a committee was ap- pointed to confer with Gov. Hadley and Atterney-General Major relative to the rates. Gov. Hadley now says P amon wvould submit to the Missouri gen and senators a statement showing that the Burlington Ratiroad, for in- earns $7000 a mile on interstate in thig State and request them demand an ihvestigation, either in i or by the Interstate Commerce The investigation, he says; will show the tailroad is earning big The Governor Says he inferred from the communication he received last week that the railroads would not re- store the old rate before having a con- ference with him and the Attorney-Gen- eral, “Attorney-General Major,’ said the Governor, “has asked Mr. Lehmann and Mr. Ladd, the two special counsel for the State, to come to Jefferson City to- morrow for the purpose of conference, and at that time the course that the State will pursue in the matter of liti- gation will be definitely decided upon. -» Te Use Every Possible Means. “I have, however, already determined not to permit the railroads of this State to continue to impose upon the people of Missouri! what I consider unfair rates ‘without exhausting every possible rem- edy to prevent this injustice. “The contention of the railroads that they are losing Jarge amounts of money upon their State freight and passenger : traffic is based upon @n expert theory _ Which assigns a dispropdrtionately large amount of expenses to the State traf- fic. The result of this theory is that they show disproportionment of large - @arnings in their interstate traffic.

By Wire From the Wasis:: " Bute reau eof the Pust-Disjiat.'.. WASHINGTON, March i16.—President Taft sent his eagerly awaited tariff re- vision message to Congress today and it contained less than 400 words, the substance of which was ‘‘Get busy, hurry up and pass a new tariff act.’’ The brevity of the massage was a surprise. Congress has been accus- tomed to 10,00 and 2,000 word ,docu- ments. f *For two weeks there has been anxiety because the President didn't seem to be working on the message. Last night it wasn't finished and most of written this morning. Forty-four Republican and 11 Demo- cratic senators were in their seats when the President’s message was laid before that body and read today. ‘The first business of the Senate today was the reception of a verbal report by Senater Aldrich, who, with Senator Daniel, had waited upon the President to officially inform him that Congress Was ready to receive a message from him, As soon as the announcement was made that the President would com- municate with Congress the President's secretary presented the special message and it Was at once read. It received ¢areful attention on the part of the senators, many of whom laughed when the President's suggestion that no legislation except in relation to the tariff be considered at this session was read. Senator Gallinger presented a resolu- tion of the Legislature of the State of New Hampshire declaring that the in- heritancé tax should not be made a sub- ject for national legislation, but should be left to the states as a source of reve- nue. .

TRYING T0 STOP $15,000PAY FOR BROTHER-IN-LAW Woman Would Restrain Him From Collecting Salary He Voted to Himself.

Mrs. Ida T. Reichert of Freeburg, fIl., wants her brother-in-law, William J. $15,000 yearly salary she says he and his wife voted to himself, as majority stockholders in the Reichert Milling Co. of Freeburg, on Jan. 6. In a petition for injunction filed to the Cireuit Court at Belleville Tuesday, she allegés that such a salary is unreasonable. Mrs. Ida Riechert is the widow of George Reichert, who owned -.- of the 600 shares of the milling company and was president of the company when he died in 1904... She says that William Reichert has tried to buy her 200 shares, which her husband left, and that now he is trying to force her to sell out. She aileges that the $203,000 surpius and undivided profits are in jeopardy be ause of the manner in which Wil- liam Reichart manages the company. She asks for an acceunting and access to the books. Says Books Were Removed. She charges that some of the: books have been removed from the company's office and that William Reichart feeds his cattle with food stuffs from the mill and uses the employes for per- Sunal services, The petition will be h .rd Saturday. William J. Reichert said Tuesday a Post-Dispatch reporter: “When I took charge of the company at my brother’s death, the mill was making $4000 to $6000" a year in net profits. Last year the net profits, over and above all salaries, were $43,000 When I took charge, five years ago, the surplus and undivided profits were $40,000. Now they are $203,000. “I don’t think that looks like mis- management and I think a man who can do that is worth $15,000 a year. That's why I voted myself that salary. “As to the charge thrt J use the com- pany’s property for personal ends, ‘that's absolutely false. The beoks are here to speak for themselves.”’ ROOSEVELT LETTER 1S SOLD FOR THIRTY CENTS A WORD NEW YORK, March 16.—A letter writ- ten by Theodore Roosevelt in 1904 tq the late Col. William L.

Her haste to buy a new spring hat that she might appear well at a lunch- eon at the Liederkranz Club Tuesday noon resulted in the detention by the police Tuesday of Mrs. Charles Tate of 6117 Cabanne avenue. Mrs. Charles Sipple, one of her neighbors in Cabanne avenue, was detained with her and Mrs. Sipple’s chauffeur, Barney Leyken, was arrested for exceeding the speed limit. Policeman Mackay, who rides a motor- cycle and whose special duty it is to watch for motorists who are exceeding the limit of speed allowed by law, was standing at Grand avenue and Washing- ton boulevard shortly before noon when a touring car came out of the west and shot by him like a streak. He jumped upon his motorcycle and gave chase. He said afterward that the machine was going at the rate of 45 miles an hour. He chased them as far as Eighteenth street, when his motorcycie broke down. He stopped, hastily repaired it and re- sumed the chase. . At Sixth street and .Washington ave- nue he caught the touring car and placed the chauffeur under arrest. Three women in the tonneau begged’ to be released. They admitted that they were going faster than the ordinances permitted, but their excuse was that they were due at the Liederkranz Club at noon and Mrs. Tate simply had to have a new hat. The policeman took the machine, the chauffeur and the three women ‘to po- lice headquarters and there a charge was placed against the chauffeur.’ The. machine was owned by Mrs. Sigpple and the women with her. were her SUCSh seu \ RESOLUTION ALLOWS ST, LOUIS TO EXTEND ITS BOUNDARIES Representative Anderson Plans to Let City Annex Contigu- ous Territory. From a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. JEFFERSON CITY, March 16.—Rep- resentative Anderson has introduced a joint and concurrent resolution propos- ing an amendment to the Constitution giving to St. Louis power, at any time, to annex contiguous territery, includ- ing any city or town therein, whether incorporated or unincorporated. Such annexation shall require a ma- jority vote of all of the voters voting on the proposition in the city of St. Louis and the territory to be annexed. KAISER PUTS LID ON SMOKING BY ARMY AND NAVY OFFICERS a and Cigarettes Prohibited ‘in Presence of Women in Evening Dress. BERLIN, March 16.—The Kaiser has issued an edict forbidding officers of the army and navy to smoke cigars or cigarettes in the presence of women in evening dress, either at court or in ho- tels, restaurants, clubs, private houses or elsewhere. An old regulation is also revived, by which smoking is forbidden in the courtyards and vestibules of the imperial castle. Society women greatly appreciate the prohibition, they having long complained of indiscriminate smoking. The ques- tion, however, is raised, will anybody check the growing custom of fashion- able women smoking cigarettes at so- cial functions and in restaurants.

according as th., met or mizsed the *“‘combine’s’’ requirements. The denial ef good and the. padsing of bad legisiation is not the only or the worst evil chargeable to “com- bines.”” In the House of Delegates. Leadership in the wards is purchased by the delegates with the patrenage and spoils of office. This leadership is strong ordinarily in preportion to the Delegate’s importance and activity in the ‘‘cembine.”’ How potent a hold a member of the “combine”’ can gain on his constituency has had an impressive demonstration within recent months. A poll of the vot- ers of the First and Second Wards after the indictment of Delegates Priesmeyer and Warner showed that a majority of those who expressed an opinion as to the expulsion of those representatives from the House of Delegates were against the proceeding. It is not likely that the result of this canvass was a true reflection of public sentiment in those wards, but it did show pretty conclusively the number of voters who would support Prie&Smeyer and Warner in any contingency—against any opponent. Why should a large num- ber of citizens put themselves on record in this connection? ‘ In the first place many of them were partisans who prefer any man of their own political creed to a better man of another faith. Secondly, there was a still bigger element which had benefited in seme way from the election of these delegates. For example, there were the men who had got jobs and the relatives of those in jebs. There were the men who had promises of jobs. There were those for whom the delegates had be- cOme bondsmen, and the fellews whose espeusal had been bought by a drink. In some form most of them were bene- ‘ficlaries of the Conger > power and **pull. >° These instances are typical. The men whe commonly enter a “combine” are those who have obtained office through championship of the least desirable cit- izens ef their wards, because it is that class which pays the closest attention to the ballot. Is some worker in jail? The Delegate gees his bail and the night is not toe celd or teo dark er teo stormy to stay him. While the citizen sleeps comfort- ably in his bed, unmindful of his own and the city’s interests, the ‘combine’ Delégate is ‘out making friends and vetes. There are jebs to give—free passes to theaters and on street cars; cots at the hespitals fer sick “In- dians,” free beer, sometimes free cloth- ing; immunity from arrest. All these are among the pedquisites of a delegate who demands them. It is with that coin that the “combine” delegate buys and holds deminion in his ward. This influence is not limited to the election or re-election of the Delegate himself. It is a big factor in the choice of every public official who must seek votes in the “cembine” Delegatés ward. Justices of the peace, city officers, State representatives and senators, even gov- ernors to some extent, depend for their success at the polie on the favor they find with the Delegate. In the degree to which such candidates are acceptable to the legislative boss of a given ward they.

claims to which the innocent voter is so strongly attached. | Ina primary election of the Republican party the Democratic heeler lends his services to the choosing of a candidate wholly pleasing to his Republican ‘‘rival,”” with the under- standing that he shall receive similar assistance when his party is making se- lections. Each boss’ would rather that victory went to the other than to an outsider. In the Third Ward the strife between “Jimmy’”’ Miles and Nick Polito has been the veriest pretense. In the Sixteenth Ward the fight between W. J. Brennan and William Budde has been a bit of theatricals. These are but examples. The hostility that the partisan voter believes to exist between his and the other fellow’s committeeman is but a farge. Agreement has been in all these cases that whoever wins, it must not be the public. Thesé deals and compacts may not be credited by the partisan voter, but they are no secret. The bosses talk of them, bring them about, count en them. In short, the politicians have long since learned what the partisan voter has yet to discover—that tthe other fellow must be used as much and as often as possible. They know that to gain their ends they must frequently sacri- fice the form for the substance—their party's name for their own advantage. They do this without consulting the partisan voter, because the partisan voter doesn’t have to be consulted or placated. He is an invariable quantity in the politician’s game with the other politician. This genius for using partisanship to achieve bi-partisan control in the House of Delegates is equal to some strange paradoxes. For instance, it explains why James T. Brennan, Demecrat, of Irish descent, representing a ward in the West End, is working in fraterna] harmony with Alex Bourg, Republican. of German origin, representing a ward an the river bank. And in that situa- tion there is the usual lesson for the partisan voter, if he'll only take it. +»

The speed limit is fixed-at 25 miles on county roads and 10 miles in busi- nese portions of towns and cities. The penalty is fixed at $25 for each From } violation of law and imprisonment at the discretion of the court. Mrs. Margaret Bach Is Dead.

CLIFTON HEIGHTS WANTS 10 ~ GIVE TWO PARKS 10 CITY Property Owners’ Annual Meeting Requires Three Days to Settle Questions. The Clifton Heights property owners have ended their long drawn-out annual meeting and still have their faces to - the east as far as the improvement policy is concerned. The meeting was extend- éd into three night sessions, one lasting until nearly morning. Some opposition had developed because of expenditures in the parks, which is paid by assess- ments on the property. Monday night it was the announced program of the objectors to oust two or more of.the old trustees and elect more conservative men, but this was not done. Instead a resolution was passed approving the board’s administration of affairs and expressing confidence in its future conduct. A resolution prevailed that it was the wish of the property owners to deed the two parks, about six acres in area, to the city if favorable provisions can be made. J. H. Higginbotham was elected a trustee to serve five years. Other mem- bers of the board are lL. Hallock, A. T. Stevens, C. B. Nicholson and W. J. Lewis. Canada Jurist Studies St. Louis. Judge J.

Sauvageot, Miss Dora Cul- j berson and other relatives of Miss Dora Sauvageot, who has remained so long in Switzerland against the wishes of her mother, and it is alleged, because of a strange influence exerted by Joshua Klein.

ME sTOREW HOM Nominee Gives Banquet for Associates on the Repub- lican Ticket. HOWE SPURNS FAVORS Chairman Tells Aspirants and Party Leader He Is Not Autocrat or Wizard. Jeptha D. Howe, speaking before Re- publican Council candidates and several party worker after a private banquet in the Lindell boulevard home of F. A. Drew, declared he was neither a wizard nor an autocrat, that he had never dis- cussed with any of the Republican nom- inees the policy to be followed after election, and that he had not asked and would not ask ahy favor from any man on the ticket. The banquet Monday evening was given by Mr. Drew, who is a Repub- lican nominee for the Council, primarily t> his associates on the Council] ticket. These nominees—J. H, Gundlach, Dr. L. E. Lehmberg, W. C. Schutz, F. W. Ev- ers, Charles Espenschied and John T. Davis—were present. Other guests were City Chairman; Howe, Otto F, Stifel, T. K. Niedring- haus, Harry Blodgett, W. J. Kinsella, Col. Isaac A. Hedges, Fred H. Kreis- mann, Dwight F. Daevis, EB. V. P. Schneiderhahn and Harold L. Brown. Mr. Drew said, in welcoming his guests, that he had never met Chairman Howe before. Howe later said there were three others on the Council] ticket whom he had never met before. Kreismann Sure of Election. “Why can’t our city officials get to- gether with business men sometimes and learn the needs of the city?’ Mr. Drew asked. He spoke of train sched- ules which tend to make St. Louis dif- ficult of access and which give travel- ers little time to stop here. He also asked why Kansas City’s bank clearings, formerly only one-third as large as ‘those of St. Louis, had grown to more than two-thirds the Bt. Louis amount, and why, in certain parts of St. Louis, so many “for rent” signs were to be seen, Candidate Kreismann said -that in ac- cepting the mayoralty, to which he said he felt certain of being elected, his greatest regret would be that he must, in a measure, give up his personal friendships. He would not permit any personal considerations, he said, to fn- fluence his policy in office. “Lenten Speakers Are Named.” Bishop Anderson of Chicago will be the guest of honor of the Church Club at the William Short Memorial House, adjoining St. .

is reversed in “The Devil.” In- stead of passion and vice being pursued by virtue and in the end virtue being triumphant, Franz Molnar has given us a play in which virtue is over- thrown and passion triumphs through the machinations of a very human devil. And it’s a very cynical, methodical devil, too. One who never misses a point, who studies human frailties, un- derstands human weaknesses, grasps each opportunity at the psychological moment, a winking, blinking, smiling, sinister being—an intensely human devil, a devilish, shrewish human. A study of “The Devil’ as seen at the Garrick last night is a study of man’s weaker self when brought into conflict with his baser passions. It is broadly suggestive in its theme and there {8 no effort to cover its sugges- tiveness. It is cynical, at times almost morbid, with always a gripping, intense hold on an audience that holds it by sheer force of argument and artistry. Its story is logical, if unpleasing and un- conventional; its humor is bright and its dialogue sparkles as the choicest nectar. And with all its sordidness and sugges- tiveness it preaches a wholesome moral to those who seek for the moral of the play. Passion the Keynote, The keynote of the entire play is pas- sion: It is the passion of a young artist for the wife of another. The passion is partly subdued, is wholly controlled, un- til the wife comes to sit for a portrait. Then the devil appears and with sinister cunning and sardonic craftiness whips into flame the burning passions. They struggle against his evil influence, but in the fateful moment the seed is sown and the harvest is inevitable. Once under the speli of the ‘crafty demon there is no escape for them.

NEW CLUB CONSIDERED

Plan to Be Offered to Place ‘Old Organization on Air- Conquering Basis,

A new “practical aé¢ronautic’’ club may be the outcome of a meetitg of the St. Louis Aero Club to be held Tuesday afternoon. While admitting the value of the present organization from a civic standpoint, a coterie actively interested in air navigation want more “action,” even ifs they have to start their own club to get it. Albert Bond Lambert, one of the most enthusiastic g@eronauts in Sst. Louis, heads that coterie. He says that, if possible, the Aero Club would be in- | duced to adopt the policy of “action. vs Otherwise, he intimated, a new club | would be formed. "I wish to disclaim credit for originat- [ing the new club idea,”’ said Mr. Lam- | bert Tuesday, “I merely have been ap- pealed to by pergons interested in actual aeronautics to form. such an organiza- ; tion if the present.Aero Club does not take up the plans’ on ag “s | Poliey wernt we He was asked if the A “one would | exclude any persons who had not made oacensions or Were willing to make them at the - firat’opportunity, and if such a policy would not exclude all but about ten men’ at present. “That would not be the policy of the new club,"’ replied Mr. Lambert, “for the field of aeronautics ig larger than the mere going up in balloons. There is the dirigible balloon to be developed and ,the heavier than air machines to be per- fected. “It Would be our idea to have grounds’ where aeroplanes could be tested and to’ purchase a suitable aeroplane motor for the use of all inventors. An aeroplane inventor can most always make his frame, the heaviest item of expense be- ing the motor, Any inventor would be llowed to use the club’s motor for tests of his device. ‘ Would Admit Manufacturers. “Then there are manufactyrers of balloons and. aeronautieal instruments. They would be admitted to membership, even though not actual balloonists. Any- j} one directly concerned with the develop- ment of air navigation would be en- titled to membership. “Then it would be our policy to in- j spire an interest in aeronautics among M. C.

The Aero Club would continue to exercise its own functions, whict. are civic ” Mr. Lambert added that he would say nothing definite until after the Aero Club had given its answer Tues- dav aftcrnoon. ; tu. D. Dozier, pres ent of the Aero Club, wes asked. what the attitude of that organization would ve if a new club were formed. He said: ‘oO, I suppose we would go on * the even tenor of our way.”

DEFT FRENCH HANDS MAKE COAL SCUTTLE A “CREATION” Newest Thing in Millinery Shown at the Grand-Leader f[s the Cabriolet. We may not have robins and bluebirds as harbingers of spring in the forest. of skyscrapers, but we have gay new hats. A flock of them have settled upon vine- clad perches amidst a profusion of some 3000 yellow jonquils at the Grand-Leader, rivaling in plumage, colorful splendor and variety any of their predecessors to these climes. “Nothing new under the sun,” was net spoken of the merry milliner. It may be that nowhere else is inventive- ness so liberally bestowed, but of what- ever humble origin les motifs come they are so effectually disguised as to well deserve being called “‘creations.’’ It is hinted that a coal scuttle suggested the contour of one of these masterpieces, In such a case it is the ugly duckling turned out a swan that its ancestor would not recognize, and it were heart- less to compare an.ashes-of-roses straw entwined by a single shaded wistaria plume—price $105—with a coal scuttle.

and narrow of brim, and are worn like the poke bonnets of about one hundred years ago, close down over the ears. A charming importation of the poke variety at the Grand-Leader is of blue jumbo braid draped gimply in a silk searf. The cabriolet merges into @ chimney pot hat.whe.r its crown be- comes too tall and its trim too narrow. The tub-shape is a variation of the chimney pot. If the hats are somewhat obstreperous as to size and weight the suits go to the other extreme and are almost as modest young nature herself. It may be that the overwhelming, top-lofty quality of the hats demands this conces- sion, in such. case the suits accomplish the necessary results most gracefully. A. decided innovation in the cause of slimness is the one-piece coat suit. This single garment is donned over petticoat and linen blouse, is buttoned from top to toe and that is all there is of it, It

Thus had they fared, perhaps, ten thousand years before when he was a cave man and she a cave weman. Thus would they fare forever—weman, whose spirit is the torch of the world, lighting and leading the way; man following, yet making her path straight. The cave man rose in the bridegroom’s heart at the thought—he was never 10,000 years away from it—which was one of the reasons the bride loved him. “I'll beat you to the beach,’’ he called. And the bride heard and thrilled to the cave nete in hig/voice, and her little feet ran from it so fleetly that even the ocean couldn’t stop them. She plunged right in and forgot all about being cold. Have you ever been young and in leve and bathed with the moenlight shining on a tumultous sea, with big actdal waves that knock you over, and inside you even bigger and more tumultous waves of feeling? First the bridegroom floated the she essayed ‘the two or three strokes he

“Kiss Mel ” had succeeded in teaching her. “Swim!’’ he commanded sternly. “Oh, I can’t,” she wailed. “I know you'll duck me. Oh, please, don’t duck me, please!’’ But the last please was said to the fish, for the bride’s head went suddenly under the water and she came up again minus her red bathing cap and snorting most unromantically, while the bridegroom laughed. Such is the sense of humor of bridegroems! ‘‘All you want is cenfidence,’’ bubbled the bridegreom when he could speak. “Well, how am I ever going to get any if you G@uck me like that?’ asked the logical bride. ‘I'll never trust-you “All right,”” acquiesced the bride- groom. “Just to preve that I'll take yov out to the float.’”’ So the wride, as she had done before, placed the tips of her fingers lightly on the bridegroom's shoulders and he swam far eut with her. She was not afraid, though she could not swim, because was not her marvelous bridegyoom with her? And though the bridegroom knew that if the bride lost her nerve and got him in the strangle hold of a frightened woman they were both gone, he did not worry in the least. And neither thought that whats they did for amusement. that night was what men and women do all their lives in the vaster sea of life where many men go dewn under the strangle hold. Far along the beach glowed a smoldering campfire. Across the Sound the Connecticut lights shone like ‘swarming fireflies. And now and then a searchlight like a giant June bug danced through the dark.

JRING this second trial, except [) when testifying or advising with the attorneys, Brookfield was noticeable for his absence from the courtroom. There were those who attributed this to his possible belief that the friendship of an ex-gambler would not be helpful to the accused. Had this been Brookfiéld’s opinion it would not have been well founded. As a gambler his reputation had been that of @ square one, and in all con- tests, whether in sporting, financial, for political circles, Jack Brookfield was known as a consistent advocate of fair play. Furthermore, in the year and a quarter that had passed since the killing of Denning, Brookfield had taken an ircreasing interest in politics. His wide acquaintance, his personal magnetism, and his ample means had made of him a factor of influence and consequent power. There was more than one man on the jury to whom the friendship of Brookfield might be valuable. Brookfield’s absence from the court- room was due to an incident of which he had made no report to any one. Near the finish of his own testimony he had chanced to glance along the double row of faces in the jury box. The glance had been casual enough in the beginning, but as it encountered the gaze of one of the men Brookfield had felt an involuntary arrest of his attention. A like happening has come to everyone at some time. Eyes con- front eyes with inexpicable recogni-. sein ng vis-a-vis is a stranger, and here is on either side no question of that fact, yet the gaze of both halts in the passing with silent sa- lute or challenge. Each look says: “Well, what is it you wish of me?’ Though Brookfield held the gaze of the juror for less than a second, he felt that if prolonged the interchange would develop into one of those op- tical duels that end in self-conscious- ness and sometimes irritation and an- ger. There was a slight show of col- or In the temples of the other man before Brookfield, tactful as he was, could move on with his glance, ac- cepting for himself the part of re- treat. In a@ later survey of the men he was careful so to time and dis- tribute his regard that this particular juror should not feel any exception in his case. Yet, impartial as was the disposition of time, there was a qual- ity in this man’s look that made Brookfield aware that their minds as well as their eyes had met. When Brookfield left the courtroom soon after, he refraine from looking back at the jury. He was conscious, through some subtle sense, that the man was again look- ing at him, and he preferred that no ~ haonaramagpe should note a second ex- change of piances between the juror and himself. In consequence of this incident Brookfield was away from the court- room during the period of Prentice’s examination, although he would have liked to hear the old Justice testify and to see the effect of his testimony. Prentice and Brookfield had been in each other's company the greater part of the time since the Justice had ar- rived in Louisville on his present mis- sion. They had talked much of the case, an Prentice’s opinions, a8 Brookfield reported them to Clay’s counsel, had atrected to some extent the conduct of the case. When, in turn, his examination was finished, Prentice came at once to Brookfield. He was not inclined to minimize the value to the defence of the appearance of a man of his po- sition, but he reported a disturbing estimate of the counteracting infu- encey of Hardmuth. There was, in his opinion, among the counsel for Whip- ple no such dominating mind as ardmuth’s—no man so capable of influencing other men by his mere rsonality, Independently of his con- entions.

Yes, sir—it would would have crushed printed what I know of _™, and as a citizen I believe I owe It to the public to tell it. I’m sorry I have put it off until too late.” “Is it too late, Mr. Brookfield? He hasn’t begun his concluding speech. What is the nature of your charge against him?’ Brookfield looked at his watch. “It mav be a kindness to you, Mr. Justice, to leave you entirely out of this. id you come back in the au~- tomobiie?’”’ 7 “Yes; it’s at the door.” “I’m going to be rude enough to ask you to find your own way to your hotel.” “No rudeness whatever, Mr. Brook- oc I see that your time is valu- able.” | Brookfield ran hurriedly downstairs taking from the rack as he passed it his overcoat and hat. As he slammed the door of the limousine, he said to the chauffeur: “The Courier-Journal!” CHAPTER XIII. T WAS night. Brookfield sat alone in his library deeply en- veloped in thought. The only f!1- lumination in the room was from the fireplace and a smail lamp on one of the side tables. The'old darky, Un- cle Harvey, entered apologetically. “Marse Jack?” ' “Well, Uncle Harvey?” looked at him. ‘*“Scuse me, suh, when you wants to be alone, but P's awful anxious my- self. Is dey any word from the co’t- house?” . “None, Uncle Harvey.”’ . ‘“Cause Jo said Missus Campbell had done come in, an’ I thought she’d been to the trial, you know.” Brookfield had about determined to go in search of her when Mrs, Camp- bell entered the room. “Jack!” she said, in a tone of min- gied ee and repreof. “Well?’’ (say, the means were Brookfield “Why are you here?” “Well” —Brookfield hesitated —‘“I live here.” Full seriousness was well- nigh impossible to Jack in most con- versations with his sister. — “But I thought’ you'd gone to Helen and Viola,” Mrs. Campbell rebuked him. “You should do so.

His sister turned from him with a sigh of hopelessness as Jo entered from the hallway. Jo’s manner was agitated. : “Well?” Brookfield inquired, sharp- y. ; “Mistah Hardmuth.” “Frank Hardmuth!” Mrs. Campbell exclaimed in her astonishment. Mrs, Campbell’s protest was checked by the abrupt entranca of Hardmuth. cuse me,” he shouted “but I can't wait in an anteroom!' ' ' “That will do, Jo,” Brookfield said to the boy. “TIT want to see you alone,” Hard- muth continued, threateningly. His nod toward s. Campbell conveyed his objection to her presence, “Yes,” Brookfield replied to the un- spoken question of his sister. He led her tenderly toward the door. “What do you. think it is?” gasped, in suppressed anxiety. “Nothing to worry over,” Brookfield answered, reassuringly, as she left the room, “Jack Brookfiela”"— Hardmuth be- gan. “Well?” “T’ve just seen Harvey Fisher, of the Courier.” “Yes?’’ “He says you've hinted at some- thing associating me with the shoot- ong 3s Scovil.” . ight!” “What do you mean?’ Hardmuth’s angry explosion carried all the threat that was possible. “I m Frank Hardmuth,” Jack answered, in that deliberate calm which most of his masculine ac- quaintances had come to correctly es- timate—“I mean that you sha’n’t hound this boy to the gallows with- out reckoning with me and the things I know of you.” “I’m doing my duty as a prosecut- ing attorney.” “You are,” interrupted Brookfield, and a great deal more—you're vent- ing a personal hatred.”’ : “That hasn’t anything to do with this Insinuation that you've handed to a newspaper man, an insinuation for which anybody ought to kill you,” *“T don’t deal in ‘insinuations.” It was a charge.”’ “A statement?” “A charge! You understand English —a specific and categorical charge.” Brookfield’s tone was rising. “Th I knew Scovil was to be “That you knew it? No!’ The voice was tenor | with contempt. “That you planned it and arranged it and procured his assassination.” The courage and character of Brookfield’s answer benumbed Hard- muth for the moment. When he spoke at last the words came slowly and ings and rang with vibrant pas- sion. “If the newspapers print that, I'll kill you, damn you—TI'll kill you!” The finish of the threat was in a whisper. Hardmuth’s clinched fist shook in Brookfield’s face. “I don’t doubt your willingness,” came the metallic reply; “and they will print it, if they haven't done 80 already.’ The insult implied in Hardmuth’s belief that to threaten his life would compel him to retract what he had said stung Brookfield like a blow on the cheek. His splendid self-control deserted him for the moment just long enough to lend increasing power to the rest of his reply. “And if they don’t print it—by God rn. print it myself and paste it or the fences!” Hardmuth’s nerve was shaken. “What have I ever done to you, Jack Brookfield, except to be your friend?” he almost whined. “You've been much too friendly. she you proposed to take to yourself as wife my niece, dear to me as my life.

TO HURRY FREE BRIDGE ————

He Promises to Carry Out Platform Promises Re- garding Structure.

William F. Woerner, the Democratic -andidate, opened his campaign for Mayor at Lemp’s Park Hall Monday night. Mr. Woerner was greeted by 2000 voters, The Democratic City Committee ar- ranged the meeting in South St. Louis as a tribute to Mr. Woerner, who lives in that section of the city. Henry G. Rolfes, who was himself a candidate for the mayoralty nomination, presided. The other candidates, including James Y. Player for Comptroller, James C., Travilla for President of the’ Board of Public Improvements, James Hagerman Jr. for Collector, William Giraldin for Treasurer, Henry Menne for Auditor, James Duross for Assessor, Cornelius Dacey for Inspector of Weights and Measures, H. Chouteau Dyer for Presi- dent of the Council and others made brief speeches. Relative to the Free Bridge Mr. Woer- ner said: “So far as the Free Bridge is concerned, I took the very first eppor- tunity that offered, namely the night of the formal notification of my nomina- tion, to state in unequivocal terms, ne* to be misunderstood, that I specially fa- vored and, if elected, would insist upen the full ebservance of that plank in our platform which demanded the comple- tion with all possible expedition and without further delay of the Free Bridge. The next Democratic adminis- tratien, if intrusted with power, will bend all its energies to the accomplish- ment of that end.” Favors Passenger Tax. Mr. Woerner, while Asseciate City Counselor, drafted the 1 mill per passen- ger street car tax bill and carried .it succéssfully through the courts. Mr. Woerner said: “I am in favor of fairly adjusting the burden ef taxation in proportion to the benefits derived and ability to pay. It is for this reason that I favor the mill per pessenger tax.’’ Discussing the regylation of rates and servieé of the utility corporations, Mr. | Woerner said: ‘‘Regulation of rates by law is neres- saily a delicate function, to be exercised with a keen sense of justice to both the public and the corporations. “On the one hand we should recog- nize that our social system rests largely upon the sanctity of property rights, so that a slight gain to each consumer re- sulting from an unjust reduction in rates would not compensate such con- sumer for his share of the genera! floss resulting from the unsettling of values and destruction of confidence by reason of a denial of a reasonable reward for just enterprise. “But, on the other hand, a disregard of their obligations to the people by these public-service corporations, and a grasping greed for exorbitant profits, which are wrung from the people, must in the end prove suicidal, since ultimate power is with the people. | “Concerns requiring a franchise from the city are created primarily for the convenience and welfare of the general public. They perform their duties under conditions of necessary monopoly and after getting their franchises, often. in their efforts for large profits. overlook . the paramount fact that they exist at all only for the accommodation of the public. They are trustees, with the people as the beneficiaries. Rates on a Proper Basis. “In the execution of this trust they must be given fair and reasonable com- pensation. But when it appears after full and careful investigation impartially made that the profits are excessive and disproportionate ‘to: the incidental risk and actual capital invested, I think steps should be taken, as now autho- rized by law, to place the rates upon the proper basis. “Equally, if not more important it is that the laws and ordinances for thei regulation and control should be suc: that the service these companies rende to the public ‘s of that high class com mensurate with the purposes for whici they Were called into being and fo which, they are invested with the ex traordinary and special privileges give’ them and for which the public pays. “Furthermore, these are concerns ° necessary monopoly, and the service: performed are in their nature puhli services, though paid for by zhe publi. mdividually. The share of each individ val in the transactions between him an such public service corporation is bu" small. Hence he ts incapable individual ly of bringing about proper adjustmen of matters between him and such con cerns. “ Under these circumstances W must look to the city to protect the ag gregate of our individual rights.”’ Mr, Woerner said he favored hom rule for St. Louis and the improvement of all the eleemosynary institutions of the city. Mr. Player discussed the problems c taxation and showed he has saved th city many thousands of dollars by care ful financial! management. Mr. Hager man said the cost of collecting the rev enue has been reduced from $12,000 pe million under Republican admiristratio to about $7000 under his own administra tion. Mr. Travilla discussed the street im provements that have been made unde the Wells administration and said the if elected he will conduct the busines “s the Board of Public Improvements | the same manner as he has the strec department.

| HOLE DRILLED IN SKULL AND TUMOR REMOVED FROM BRAIN Remarkable Operation Performed on Boy Who Was Partially Paralyzed. WASHINGTON, March 16.—What is pronounced a feat in surgery was an operation on the brain of Russell Dulin, ll years old, performed at Georgetown Hospital yesterday. The boy’s brain was seriously impaired because of a.tu- morous growth and this produced some- thing akin to a paralytic condition: The right lobe of the brain became affected more than a year ‘ago and the boy's left side suffered a stroke of paralysis. His condition recently became danger- ous. The surgeon made an incision in the scalp and drilled an orifice in the bone of sufficient size to enable him to use’ his forceps. The tumorous growth was removed and it is said that the child’s brain will assume its normal functions, in time becoming entirely healthy. If the operation is successful the muscles and tendons of the :child’s body will relax and he will gain strength steadily.

(From New York World, Oct. 29, 08) Prison Hardships Affected After Life One of the most interesting experi: ences that has been recorded in connee- tion with the Cooper remedies, which are now being excensively soid in: this city, is related by Mrs. [enry Stratt- mann, of 265 Vast Tenth street, New York. Mrs. Strattmann describes the ease of her husband, a veteran of the Civil War, who spent eleven months of his service in Andersonville ‘Prison. She says: “My husband had stomach trouble for many years. He was for thirty- four years employed,.in a sugar refin- ery. He is an old soldier of the Civil War, and during that struggle was in- carcerated for char months in Ander- sonville Prison. As a result of the hardships imposed upon -him at: that time, he has never had a healthy stom- ach since. “During the past twelve years, how- ever, his trouble gradually became more aggravated, and for several years past he has suffered terribly. He got so he ate very sparingly and seemed to have no desire for. food. Liquids formed his principal diet, as solid food

hurt him and made the pain more s¢- vere. ‘Doctors were consulted, but failed to help him. One doctor diagnosed his trouble as cancer of the stomach, ana held out no hope. He also tried a nuim- ber of remedies that vere recommend- ed, but might as well have saved his money for all the good they did. About two months ago he was persuaded to give the Cooper remedies a trial, and procured a treatment of Cooper’s New Discovery. “Now he is well. I have not seen him look so strong and hearty in years. He feels splendid, and eats any kind of food -he likes. All the pain has disap- eared, and he is entirely free from gas. fe deeply appreciate what Cooper's New Discovery has done for him, and having proved it to be a sovereign stomach medicine, we do not hesitat> to freely recommend it to all who suf- fer from stomach disorders.” Cooper’s New Discovery is now on sale at leading druggists everywhere. If you are unable to get it from your local druggist, notify The Cooper Medi- cine Company, Dayton, Ohio.

The Browns have been here but a week, part of that time Griggs has been sick in bed and other days have been too wet to practice, yet with all these handicaps, this boy has displayed so much class that McAleer has already named him a sure member of the Browns of 1909. Some of the older members of the Browns are wondering how such a player. as Griggs could have been hid- den down in the Texas League all of last séason. Such judges of ball play: ers as Barney Pelty, Harry Howell and Hoba Ferris declare they have never seen such a good looking beginner. That's saying a good deal for it Is sel- dom that an old player will express an opinion on a youngster until he has been thoroughly tried. -But Griggs has the grace of Lajole and the batting wallop of oid Ed Delehanty, and such Doctor Declares Has Never Had Rheumatism matism that laid me up for a while last fall,”’ said Jimmy. “But I found out there is no rheumatism in me at all. The trouble was a torn ligament in my hip, and because I continued to play, it continued to be sore. The doctor at Hot Springs as- sured me I had no rheumatism and that the injured hip of last fall. is as strong as ever. “Why, I've been walking eight miles every day with Jack O’Connor over those hilis of Hot Springs, and anyone that has been there knows that such things cannot be done by a fellow who is about all in. I heard some fellow from St. Louis rad reported that there was sométhing seriously wrong’ with me, and I might not be able to get back to form again. I am sure I gave nobody from St.. Louis such an impression, and if he had been watching me every day he would have known differently.’ Jimmy is very little heavier than when he. went home last fall and says he’ll be shooting the ball arounfi the bags in a few days. Harry Howell will not be able to work for at least a weék and maybe ten days. Harry had an X-ray exam- ination made of his arm last night and the doctor told him a ligament in the shoulder was torn, and the only way to allow it to heal was to keep the arm absolutely quiet for at least a week, Harry injured this arm the very first day up at Dallas, when he was playing third base, and ever since then he has been trying to work out the sureness, but, of course, was making it only ee | ‘HAD always thought it was rheu- CRUSINBERRY.

Manager McAleer wore a_ broader smile today than he has- shown since leaving St. Louis. With. Jimmy Wil- liams back in the fold and in fine trim the last load of approbation was lifted from the mind of the Brownie boss. For several days he had been in doubt. A rumor had reached him that Williams had been injured and another had it that he was batlly crippled witM rheu- matism and couldn’t possibly get into condition. All these things caused worry to Manager Jeems, for he had wired a railroad ticket to Jimmy and had ex- pected him here Friday. But Jimmy decided to stay up there a few days over his time just because he was feeling so goéa there and because he was with Jack O’Connor. fore dinner last night he arrived at the though he had just come from college. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the star second sacker. He is even bet ter off than he himself supposed.

Williams his own accord he went to the physician last night and iearned the truth, so now he will not put on his uniform for a week. ‘The chances are, however, that he will be in shape to work early in the season as before, because his physical condition is excel- lent. Jimmy Williams announces that he has had sickness in his family much of the winter. Mrs. Williams” mother Gied during the winter and the event so upset Jimmy’s wife that she has not recovered yet. He has left her and the children in Pittsburg, but will <sve them move to St. Louis as soon as the season opens. Barney Pelty was shooting the ball at full speed in the workout vesterday and seems to be in better condition than any of the pitchers.

LAMBERT LOSES FIRST NATIONAL CUE CONTEST Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, March 16.—Jordan Lam- bert of St. Louis lost the first &ame in the three-cushion billiard matcH between the Eastern and Western teams, but New York had to call on its reserve strength to turn the trick. The first game of the tournament was played at John McGraw’s, Mr. Lambert being pitted against James Blair. The game was a dliel of safety play, in which Lambert had a decided advantage and seemed to have his game surely won, but In the fifty-seventh inning, with the score 82 to 16 in favor of Mr. Lambert, Mr. Blair was withdrawn and his place was taken by O. Ballou. After the switch in players there came a decided change. Mr. Lambert could not get them to break for him, and Ballou rapidly overcame his lead and finally won-out, 50 to 48 Ballou’s average was the exceptionally good one of .91 33-37, with a high run of 4. Lam- bert’s average was 50, with a high run of 6, and Blair’s high run was 3. Tonight's game will be played at Daly's, with Charles Morin, Chicago, captain of the Western team, and Rob- ert Bock of New York, captain of the Eastern team, the contestants.

J Tex. in doubt about the condition of Williams, ee WILLIAMS caused us all a thrill or two recently by failing give a reason for not reporting to the Browns’ James merely thought it was unnecessary, to manager at Houston, Lest anyone be at all and through such doubt misjudge the Browns’ pennant chances, list te the chirp of Jack O’Connor, erstwhile of Spa as follows: “It's all nonsense, this talk about Williams being all in. I have known Jimmy for a long time and I am giving it to you straight when I say that he is in better condition now than he has been at any time for at least five years. He hasn’t had the least trouble. He didn’t play much baseball while at Hot Springs because the weather hasn't been very warm and he didn’t want to take a chance of hurting himself. He and I did road work together at Hot Springs and Jimmy is down to weight right now. He read those reports about his bad condition and wondered how they started. I think he was rather worried about it for he left Sunday night to join the team, although he had intended staying at the Springs awhile longer. But take it from me Jimmy will have one of the best seasons he has ever had,’’ MecAlecr’s Bright Outlook. So let’s all permit this bugbear gossip about Williams to die. -James is in Camp |McAleer to vindicate bimself ply- sically. Conjecture need no longer have a place on the map. Incidentally Mc- Aleer’s only cloud has been chased and »jthe leader of the Browns does not ap- pear to have a flaw in his prospects fer the season. 7_-_-- Although Jimmy Williams is not of this class, baseball club owners will some day awaken to the fact that there are certain gentlemen who accept spring training money and their only purpose is to sozzle at the spa. If yeu want te know What that is just look it up in the dictionary. Can McGraw Do It? ATE drew cards in the National 7 league championship game, and riow we have to revise the fore- view of the finish of this race. With McGraw unhampered by _ difficulties with members of his club, it surely seemed, in view of last year’s splendid race, that the New York club was des- tined to break the Cubs’ confidence. Now, unless the wonderful resources of this John McGraw are equal to a mest unexpected emergency, the team will have to again step aside, while the Cubs make a record by winning four straight pennants in the National League. It's all on account ef Seymour and Mike Donlin, two gentlemen who have jat various times alternately given base- ball managers cause for rejoicing and anguish. At present both seem perma- nently lost to McGraw, Mr. Brush, owner of the New York club, having decided to let Mr. Donlin go to—well, to Europe before giving him $8000 a year salary, while Cy Seymour, through too carefully following the instructions of Omar Knayyam in the matter of fermented grape juice, has gotten him- self canceled from the Giants’ ros- ter. This leaves McGraw with an out- field consisting of Jack Murray. Mr. Murray was a good rdina) last year, but he may be a bad Giant. To assist Jack, in case’.e is about to show the

ees ae Wb. Sellen 8 ee es ine co: the Browns, whe was with Williams at Hot Springs. O’Connor writes from the De Vore and others of apparently non- championship material. The hard-hit- ting Donlin and Seymour, taken from the club,’ will strip it of factors who did much toward breaking up the de- fense of opponents. Seymour had no remarkable batting average last year. It was a bad season with him, but at that he managed te put several games on McGraw’s calendar through eppor- tune and hard safeties. New York Not in It. ITH this pair out of the New York \W fold it is hard to see McGraw’s men. To many it was hard to see the team last year, and in this lies the hope of Gotham fans that the de- fection of the two stars will not affect the team’s chances. These profess to be- lieve that it is McGraw who is the New York club, not his men., Certainly the wizardry which this baseball leader has wrought. with indifferent tools is little short of a*miracle. Yet even McGraw cannot turn dross inte gold or a minor leaguer into a jewel. Without Donlin and Seymour it is impossible to see New York, except as an occasional ob- stacle in the way of the Cubs’ record number of games won. Donlin was not only a means of breaking up the oppo- sition; he was a source or inspiration and cenfidence to the men with him. With Mike in the game they felt that there was always a chance of something when he came to the bat. He was to the New York club what Hans Wagner is to Pittsburg. And then, to the Seymour-Donlin total let us not forget that Roger Bresnahan, too, is gone from New York. Bresna- han was, with Donlin, an equal source of inspiration to the club. Although he did not play daily, yet when he was in the game he was a noticeable aid with his batting, headwork, base running and daring. New York can positively not survive the loss ef these three men. Not even McGraw can overcome this disas- ter. Two Jobs for Roger. PEAKING of Bresnahan, the re- port has been bandied about that he would play the outfield. This, of course, is impossible as a general proposition. Yet it raises a point that might be brought up in connection with a club like the Cardinals, which so badly needs every ounce of strength which it can get. .In the old days of baseball, pitchers were wont ‘fo play to outfield when they were not working in the box. It has been suggested that, as Murray’s departure from the club leaves a deubt- ful place in the Cardinal outworks, Bresnahan fili it, during such occasions when he is not catching. Bresnahan has many baseball qualities that make him grea besides his generalship behind the bat. He is able to get on base and is a terror when there. A man of his caliber, in the game every day, would mean just as much to the team as any one man could. Roger is big and strong and surely he could stand the gaff. Perhaps it’s worth a trial in such times as these, when everyone is looking to

St. Louis University has written Fran- coach of the Washington University team, asking on what terms he would accept the post of coach of fhe football team at St. Louis U., left vacant when Eddie Cochems resigned. Cayou is one of a number of other well- known football men with whom the varsity is negotiating. Washington University students are now getting busy in an effort to retain Cayou, who is a big favorite at Wash- ington and did good work at the Pike- way institution last year, considering the material he had to work with. Washington University students last year raised $600 to help bring Cayou to Washington. Cayou formerly coached the Wabash College team. There was a hitch over salary, but the students came fo the front with an extra $600 and Cayou was engaged. a.

Twentiet}, mile Twenty-fifth mile...2: Finish The records for the one, five, ten, fifteen and twenty miles were made in the Longboat-Shrubb race; the twenty-fifth and finish in the pre- vious Dorando-Hayes match.

By WM. P, McLOUGHLIN, NEW YORK, March 16.—Dorando Pietri decisively defeated Johnny Hayes in the third Marathon which they have competed. Jchnny had _ scooted into victory at the London Olympic games last August while Dorando lay helpless within the gates of the Stadium. They met again in Madison Square Garden, when Dorando turned the ta- bles on Hayes, beating him by about half a lap. The contest last néght was in the nature of a saw-off, each having one race to his credit. The finishing time was 2h. 48m. 8s., three minutes and 48 seconds behind the world’s record established» on the Same track by the pair last November. At the finishing touch Dorando showed the most remarkable sprint I have ever seen after such a terribly gruelling contest. He gave undoubted evidence by his condition wnen he spurted in a winner that he could go ten miles more. He is a great runner, is the litdle chap from Messina and in the form he showed last night can trim all the Marathon runners now alive. The crowd stormed the track at the close, and when the finishing gin was fired Jehnny was.still on hig feet, but struggling, oh, so painfully and hope- lessly to reach the tape.. He was then four laps behind. There was very little big betting on the result. The wise money went down in smal] sums at the start. There was more disposition to bet that one or the other would quit, but I found no one willing to risk a large wad. Dorando was in fine condition as he lined up for the start. Hayes ——— a little too fine.

‘Regulars Drive the Ball All Gur Lotin : Game— Pitchers, However, Did Not Extend Themselves.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark., March 16. HERE was a pléased expression on ge the face of Stanley Robison, own- er of the Cardinals, as he sat in the grand stand at Argenta yesterday afternoon and watch his regulars whale Southpaws- Sullfvan and Sallee fot 17 hits for a total of 22 bases. The regulars gave the most impressive ex- hibition of hitting that they have thus far displayed, and won from the Bres- nahans, eased up, the Agures being 9 to 1. “IT am more than pleased with what I have seen of the boys’ work,” said Mr. Robison st before he boarded a train for St. Louis tonight. “I never saw a lot of men in better condition. They have had just the sort of work to put them*in the very best physical condi- tion. A week of warm weather and they will be ready to go at top speed. By. the time I return next week, I line on them.” Although not as large as had been an- ticipated, a fair crowd turned out in Argenta to witness yesterday's game. Following his usual custom of sending the regulars up against southpaw pitch- ing, Manager Bresnahan sent Sullivan to the mound for the second team. The big collegian did not attempt to use any curves, and his fast ball was hailed with delight by the sluggers. They whaled Sully’s offerings for 11 hits, in- cluding five doubles, in five innings, netting six runs, despite some reckless baserunning. Sallee went to the rescue at the beginning of the sixth. That was a bad inning for the slat-like south- paw, who passed two men, made a wild throw to first-on Phelps’ attempted sacrifice and was tovehed up for three singles. The whole atrocious heap netted three runs. After that Sal settled down and did not allow further scoring. Ed Koney was the bright and shining light, of the afternoon. He got two sin- gles and a double out or five appear- ances at bat and stole three bases. He think I will be able to get a very fair].

portant Duties of Physicians the Well-Informed of the World

is to learn as to the relative standing and reliability of the leading manufactur ers of medicinal agents, as the most eminent physicians are the most careful as to the uniform quality and perfect purity of remedies prescribed by them, and it is well known to physicians and the Well-Informed generally that the California Fig Syrup Co., by reason of its correct methods and perfect equipment and the ethical character of its product,has attained to the high standing in scientific and commercial circles which is accorded to successful/Mnd reliable. houses only, and, therefore, that the name of the Company has become a guarantee of the excellence of its remedy. TRUTH AND QUALITY appeal to th® Well-Informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent suc- cess and creditable standing, therefore we wish to call the attention of all who would enjoy good health, with its blessings, to the fact that it involves the question of right living with all the term implies. With proper knowledge of what is best each hour of recreation, of enjoyment, of contemplation and of effort may be made to contribute to that end and the use of medicines dispensed with generally to great advantage, but as in many instances a simple, wholesome remedy may be invaluable if taken at the proper time, the California Fig Syrup Co. feels that it is alike important to present truthfully the subject and to supply the one perfect laxative remedy which has won the appoval of physicians and the world-wide acceptance of the Well-Informed, because of the excellence of the combination, known to all, and the original method of manufac- ‘ ture, which is known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only. This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known under the name of— Syrup of Figs—and has attained to world-wide acceptance as the most excellent of family laxatives, and as its pure laxative principles, obtained from Senna, are well known to physicians and the Well-Informed of the world to be the best of natural laxatives, we have adopted the more elaborate name of—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as more fully descriptive of the remedy, but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter name of Syrup of Figs—and to get its beneficial effects always note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company — California Fig Syrup Co.— plainly printed on the front of every package, whether you simply call for— Syrup of Figs—or by the full name—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—as—Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna—is the one laxative remedy manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. and the same heretofore known by the name— Syrup of Figs—which has given satisfaction to millions. The genuine is for sale by all leading druggists throughout the United States,in original packages of one size only, the regular price of which is fifty cents per bottle. Every bottle is sold under the general guarantee of the Company, filed with the Secretary of Agriculture, at Washington, D. C., that the remedy is not adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the Food and Drugs Act, June 30th, 1906.

JEFFERSON CITY, March 15.—Legis- lation to provide a municipal courts sys- tent for St. Louis is dead. Senator Humphrey and the six other members of the Judiciary Committee, fesponsible St. Louis and other champions of the measure could not have favored it iff they had read its provisions carefully Senator Humphrey says that, while Mr. Judson approved the principle of the bill, he admitted to the Committee that he had not studied its detalis. Senators Fields and Eads were the only members of the Committee who thought the bill ought to pass. The others who voted against it were: Mayer of St. Joseph, Dowell of Lewis, Mc- David of Greene, McAllister of Monroe, Oliver of Pemiscot, Greene of Kansas+ City and Humphrey of Shelby, all Dem- ocrats. Senators Hudson, Republican, and Krone, Republican, were absent. Senator Humphrey said that the bill was rejected because it was unconstitu-, tional in abolishing justice courts, be- cause it did not make the proposed mu- nicipal court a court of record, because it would add new burdens to the Court of Appeals which is already congested, because it- gave the Municipal Assem- bly the power to increase the number of courts and raise the salaries of the judges at will and because ft gave the Chief Justice too much: power. : DIVIDENDS SOON FOR COLONIAL AND NORTH AMERICAN CREDITORS 23 or 24 Per Cent for Former, 28 or 29 for Latter, Part of It in Near Future. Dividends aggregating 23 or 24 per cent will be received by the creditors of the Colonial Security Co. and dividends amounting to 28 to 29 per cent by the creditors of the North American In- vestment Co., according to a report of Special Master Walter Littlefield, who was appointed by the United States Cir- cult Court at Kansas City to audit the affairs of the two companies when they went into the hands of a receiver in 1907. The Mississippi Valley Trust Co., as receiver, has had the management of the assets and has reported to the Court that the income from the property will perhaps more than pay the court costs and other expenses, leaving the assets intact for distribution among the cred- sorsy The assets are being liquidated and enough cash is now on hand to declare a 15 per cent dividend in the near fu- ture, according to Littlefield’s report.

Offi- cials to Believe Sisters Will Claim It. In the hope of obtaining decent burial for the body of Louis Steideman, who died four days ago at the City Hospital, Coroner Baron and Morgue Superintend- ent Provost are bending every effort to identify the authors of various telephone messages received in the last two days at the Coroner’s office and the morgue, inquiring about the disposition of the body. Steideman died from injuries received when he was struck by a Wabash train. His body was taken to the morgue, It was fdentified there by a man who said Steideman had sisters living in St. Louis in comfortable circumstances -and who probably would wish to bury the. body rather than allow it to go to potter’s field or to the dissecting room of the Anatomical Board. The man left the morgue sayjng he would try te find the relatives. Later he returned and told Superintendent Provost he had been unable to commu- nicate with the sisters. Shertly after- ward telephone messages concerning the disposition of Steideman’s body were re- ceived at the Corener’s office and the morgue. Seme of the messages were from women. The body has been. held longer than the customary 48 hours, the limit for holding unclaimed bodies, because the officials think someone interested may claim it.

Charles Martin felt like a village clown Monday night and as a result Mrs. Hazel Wicks, 19 years old and a bride, is at the City Hospital nursing a stab wound and Martin is in Central District holdover charged with larceny and as- sault. When the police caught Martin he was transferring hal] lamps from ene Pine street reoming house te anether. He said he was just doing it for fun. About 9 p. m. he appeared at the door of Mrs. Wicks’ room at 1309 Washington avenue and demanded admission, saying he had a funny story to tell. Mrs. Wicks tried to close the door in his face and he plunged a penknife into her breast. Mrs. Wicks screamed for help and Martin fled past a half dezen reom- ers, who tried te capture him, fleurish- ing his knife as he ran. ’ Mrs. Wicks was hurried to the hes- pital and an order was issued fer Mar- tin’s arrest.
